Setup

1. Add Jitpack repository to your project

repositories {
    ...
    maven {
        url 'https://jitpack.io'
    }
}

2. Provide the gradle dependency

implementation 'com.github.rooneyandshadows:lightbulb-easyrecyclerview:2.4.0'
// Add recycler adapters support
implementation 'com.github.rooneyandshadows:lightbulb-recycleradapters:2.4.0'

Note

EasyRecyclerView works with adapters of type EasyRecyclerAdapter.

3. Describe the data model for the adapter

class DemoModel : EasyAdapterObservableDataModel {

    @get:Bindable
    var title: String by ObservableProperty("", BR.title)

    @get:Bindable
    var subtitle: String by ObservableProperty("", BR.subtitle)
  
    override val itemName: String
        get() = title

    constructor(title: String, subtitle: String) {
        this.title = title
        this.subtitle = subtitle
    }

    // Parcelling part
    constructor(parcel: Parcel) {
        title = parcel.readString()!!
        subtitle = parcel.readString()!!
    }

    override fun writeToParcel(dest: Parcel, flags: Int) {
        dest.writeString(title)
        dest.writeString(subtitle)
    }

    override fun describeContents(): Int {
        return 0
    }

    companion object CREATOR : Creator<DemoModel> {
        override fun createFromParcel(parcel: Parcel): DemoModel {
            return DemoModel(parcel)
        }

        override fun newArray(size: Int): Array<DemoModel?> {
            return arrayOfNulls(size)
        }
    }
}

4. Create your data adapter

class SimpleAdapter : EasyRecyclerAdapter<DemoModel>() {
    override val collection: BasicCollection<DemoModel>
        get() = super.collection as BasicCollection<DemoModel>

    override fun createCollection(): BasicCollection<DemoModel> {
        return BasicCollection(this)
    }

    override fun onCreateViewHolder(parent: ViewGroup, viewType: Int): RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
        //create your ViewHolder
    }

    override fun onBindViewHolder(holder: RecyclerView.ViewHolder, position: Int) {
        //bind your data
    }

    class ViewHolder(val binding: DemoListItemLayoutBinding) : RecyclerView.ViewHolder(
        binding.root
    )
}

5. Create your RecyclerView

class SimpleRecyclerView @JvmOverloads constructor(
    context: Context,
    attrs: AttributeSet? = null,
) : EasyRecyclerView<DemoModel>(context, attrs) {
    override val adapter: SimpleAdapter
        get() = super.adapter as SimpleAdapter

    init {
        setAdapter(SimpleAdapter())
    }
}

6. Add the EasyRecyclerView into the XML

<com.github.rooneyandshadows.lightbulb.easyrecyclerviewdemo.demo.views.SimpleRecyclerView
    android:id="@+id/recycler_view" 
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" />

7. Select the view in your activity/fragment and provide it with adapter and data

@Override
override fun doOnViewCreated(fragmentView: View, savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    recyclerView = fragmentView.findViewById(R.id.recycler_view).apply {
        if (savedInstanceState != null) return@apply
        val initialData = generateData(20)
        adapter.collection.set(initialData)
    }
}

And that's it. EasyRecyclerView is ready to use.

Additional Setup

Available attributes

<EasyRecyclerView>
    <attr name="erv_empty_layout_id" format="reference" /><!--Layout to show when there is no data-->
    <attr name="erv_supports_overscroll_bounce" format="boolean" /><!--Whether bounce on overscroll is supported.[default:false]-->
    <attr name="erv_layout_manager" format="enum"><!--Type of the layout manager for the recyclerview. [default:LAYOUT_LINEAR_VERTICAL] -->
        <enum name="LAYOUT_LINEAR_VERTICAL" value="1" />
        <enum name="LAYOUT_LINEAR_HORIZONTAL" value="2" />
        <enum name="LAYOUT_FLOW_VERTICAL" value="3" />
        <enum name="LAYOUT_FLOW_HORIZONTAL" value="4" />
    </attr>
</EasyRecyclerView>

Enable pull to refresh

Setup your fragment/activity

override fun doOnViewCreated(fragmentView: View, savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    val decoration = VerticalAndHorizontalSpaceItemDecoration(ResourceUtils.dpToPx(12))
    recyclerView.addItemDecoration(decoration)
    recyclerView.setPullToRefreshListener {
        //fetch data
        val data = generateData(10)
        recyclerView.adapter.collection.set(data)
        recyclerView.onRefreshDataFinished()
    }
    if (savedInstanceState != null) return
    recyclerView.adapter.collection.set(viewModel.listData)
}

Enable lazy loading

Setup your fragment/activity

override fun doOnViewCreated(fragmentView: View, savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    val decoration = VerticalAndHorizontalSpaceItemDecoration(ResourceUtils.dpToPx(12))
    recyclerView.addItemDecoration(decoration)
    recyclerView.setLazyLoadingListener {
        val data = generateData(10)
        val currentSize = recyclerView.adapter.collection.size()
        val hasMoreData =currentSize + data.size < 40
        recyclerView.adapter.collection.addAll(data)
        recyclerView.onLazyLoadingFinished(hasMoreData)
    }
  if (savedInstanceState != null) return
  recyclerView.adapter.collection.set(viewModel.listData)
}

Enable swipe/drag of items

 @Override
override fun doOnViewCreated(fragmentView: View, savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    //...
    recyclerView.setAdapter(SimpleAdapter(), configureSwipeHandler())
}

private fun configureSwipeHandler(): TouchCallbacks<DemoModel> {
    return object : TouchCallbacks<DemoModel>(requireContext()) {
        override fun getAllowedSwipeDirections(item: DemoModel): Directions {
            return Directions.NONE
        }

        override fun getAllowedDragDirections(item: DemoModel): Directions {
            return Directions.UP_DOWN
        }

        override fun getActionBackgroundText(item: DemoModel): String {
            return item.itemName
        }

        override fun onSwipeActionApplied(
            item: DemoModel,
            position: Int,
            adapter: EasyRecyclerAdapter<DemoModel>,
            direction: Directions
        ) {
        }

        override fun onActionCancelled(
            item: DemoModel,
            adapter: EasyRecyclerAdapter<DemoModel>,
            position: Int
        ) {
        }

        override fun getSwipeBackgroundColor(direction: Directions): Int {
            return ResourceUtils.getColorByAttribute(requireContext(), R.attr.colorError)
        }

        override fun getSwipeIcon(direction: Directions): Drawable {
            return ResourceUtils.getDrawable(requireContext(), R.drawable.icon_delete)!!
        }

        override fun getPendingActionText(direction: Directions): String {
            return "Delete"
        }

        override fun getConfiguration(context: Context): SwipeConfiguration {
            return SwipeConfiguration(requireContext())
        }
    }
}

Enable alternative empty layout

Trough xml

<com.github.rooneyandshadows.lightbulb.easyrecyclerview.EasyRecyclerView
    android:id="@+id/easy_recycler_view" 
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" 
    app:erv_empty_layout_id="R.layout.yourlayout" />

Trough java

@Override
override fun doOnViewStateRestored(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    val emptyLayout = generateEmptyLayout()
    recyclerView.setEmptyLayout(emptyLayout,
        object : EasyRecyclerView.EasyRecyclerEmptyLayoutListener() {
            @Override
            override fun onInflated(view: View?) {
                super.onInflated(view)
            }

            @Override
            override fun onShow(view: View?) {
